It's been a while since my last blog entry, but here are some of the pictures taken at the last couple of 4 season workshops at the barn. In preparation for our spring and summer pieces, we've been mark-making using simple tools like credit cards, corks, empty toilet rolls and duplo bricks. Amazing what you can do with those when you let yourself go! We used thickened procion on soda-soaked cotton, then scraped the background colour with a squeegee.This week brought some more exciting new work. Rachel's winter and spring with tulip pieces are fabulous, Edwina worked with cool blues and greens on catkins and lovely sketchbook page from Jo and Marion's spring version of her pieced tree theme hanging.
